• Use a Virtual Conference App
• Incorporate an interactive event app that allows
  your audience to instantly engage with your
  virtual conference. An app provides immediate
  access to key information, including agenda and
  speaker information, as well as social networking
  tools like Twitter feeds and Facebook updates. It
  can also include a polling feature that allows
  you to gather instant feedback on specific
  topics. This is useful information for event
  planners, helping them to better understand
  audience interests and tailor future events
  accordingly. Polling apps can be easily
  integrated into any conference website or blog,
  allowing attendees to vote from their mobile
  devices anytime during the event.

2. Create Live Streaming Video Content for Your
Event Website or Blog A live video stream of
your virtual conference is an excellent way to
connect with attendees in real time.
Live-streaming video is especially helpful for
virtual conferences held during non-traditional
business hours, allowing you to tap into the
online crowd from anywhere in the world at any
time of day or night. And by creating a live
video stream, you can engage attendees in ways
that are not possible through conventional
conference calls or webcasts. For example, you
can incorporate QA sessions and polling tools
into your live video stream to allow attendees to
interact with each other and the speakers. This
can be especially helpful for virtual events held
during multiple time zones, providing attendees
with a way to stay engaged even when they cannot
be physically present at the event.

3. Use Social Media Marketing Tools to Build Your
Event Audience Social media marketing is an
effective way to build awareness of your virtual
conference before it takes place, as well as
promote specific sessions after the event has
taken place. Virtual conferences are ideal for
social media marketing because they take place in
real time and can be viewed live by anyone on any
device with Internet access including smartphones
and tablets like iPads and Android devices. In
fact, nearly 50 percent of all Twitter traffic
takes place on mobile devices so it's important
to ensure your virtual conference has a
mobile-friendly experience that allows attendees
to watch live sessions on their smartphones or
tablets.

4. Find the Right Host for Your Virtual
Conference The right host can help you make your
virtual conference a success by providing a
platform for you to share your content, as well
as providing technology, support, and other
services that help you engage with attendees. The
host can also provide an interface for
registration and payment processing, which can be
an important part of any event's success. In
addition, the host can provide the technology
needed to make it easy for attendees to follow
along with live sessions including tools that
allow them to ask questions or participate in
polls during the session as well as tools that
enable them to view recordings of sessions after
they have taken place. Look for the best virtual
conference platforms which help you create an
engaging and successful event.

• 5. Choose a Virtual Event Format
• How you structure your virtual conference can
  help determine how much interaction you'll have
  with attendees, and how much the event will cost.
  Ask yourself these questions to help decide what
  type of format is best
• How many sessions will the event have?
• How long will each session be?
• What topics will each session cover? (Will they
  be similar enough to allow for multiple
  timeslots?)
• Will the sessions be recorded? If so, how soon
  after the live session will they be available for
  viewing? (This helps reduce costs and logistical
  challenges.)
